·With gratitude to OF! (And apologies to the mods for the original post, in which I included a second watch---I've sold here several times but forgot that rule!)
I'm shedding some of the lesser-used items in my small collection. This is a superb, perfectly-functioning and cosmetically 8+ microbrand piece.
$300 SOLD Thanks, OF!
Continental US sale only; I'll cover USPS Priority shipping. Not interested in any trades. No returns unless grossly mis-described.
Only positive feedback here and (a great deal more of it) on eBay.
I will include what the watch came with (box, paperwork, a pouch/pillow, etc), but I'm not considering that to be a value proposition. This isn't vintage Speedmaster or anything.
The watch is currently adjusted to my 6.75" wrist, but I will include all links.

The official Lorier (pronounced Lor-yay) description is here. Many of you know this brand and this watch; suffice to say, it's a phenomenal (I believe New York based) microbrand chrono and one that's hard to get! Retail is $500, and they've been sold out for a while.
At 39mm, its proportions feel akin to the FOIS. (Indeed, I wore it once or twice on a brown leather strap it and looked fantastic that way!) At that size, it's extremely wearable, understated, with a strong vintage vibe, but without looking like a tribute or homage piece--it's its own thing.
The stainless bracelet is really superb---they hit it out of the park. So comfortable and a thoughtful design. With the drilled lugs, changing it around is simple.
Built on the venerable and tough Seagull ST19, this is a manual-wind chrono that keeps excellent time. The watch shouldn't need a service for many years.
Somewhat unusual, too, in that it pairs the chronograph feature with a bidirectional timing bezel---which you can also use to track a second time zone if you want, of course, so it's an extremely functional tool watch, though this could also be an everyday piece.
